    Brief rules and additional info:

A minimum of 2 WIPs are required in addition to your final entry. Links to these should be posted along with your final entry in the finals thread. A link is provided below to details of how to do this. You may be disqualified if you do not post WIP links correctly.

 All artwork must be the work of the entrant, and completed within the time frame of the challenge. You may only enter 1 entry per challenge, and may only cast 1 set of votes during voting.

 Please keep entries and WIPs below 500k and a maximum of 1000 pixels across. Larger files causes problems for all users, especially those on slower connections.

    Wow, my first week on the forum and one of my topics is chosen for the weekly.

    I said I wasn't going to enter any for awhile until my photoshop skills were better but I have sooooo many ideas.

    Think im happy with this overall. Scifi/horror image inspired by the lyrics of "Pinball Wizard" by The Who;

    "He stands like a statue,
    Becomes part of the machine.
    Feeling all the bumpers
    Always playing clean.
    He plays by intuition,
    The digit counters fall.
    That deaf dumb and blind kid
    Sure plays a mean pin ball!"

    Band: Iron Maiden 

    Lyrics: 

    Fear of the dark, fear of the dark

    I have a constant fear that something's

    Always near

    I have phobia that someone's

    Always there

    Thanks Em and carl666 for this challenge, I really enjoyed it. Because its music related I just went abstract and didn't worry about making it look 'real'

    Carl, I agree with you, but I guess we have to eat.

       "The Witchwood" by Strawbs

    "The witchwood started singing, with a strange unearthly sound
    My fingers grew like branches. I stood rooted to the ground
    And the spell is still unbroken. I am still her bidden slave
    Till a casket from the witchwood bears my body to the grave."

    WIP1

    Good Luck to all!
